Hey Jon and Fred, as my e-mails said I'll most likely join you at Swantown Thursday morning. Wind looks like 10-20 north of Narrows Bridge. South Sound will give us more protection.

See you tomorrow.

We are thinking about driving over on Sat. and findin a Motel for Sat. nite and be there for the afternoon/Evening festivities.
Sensei is still sitting in the Shop . I am trying to get the fuel tanks installed and have it all apart right now.
Hope to see you all on Saturday sometime.

Sounds like a plan to me, Roger! See you there. Get Sensei back together!

Glad you can make it Roger. If it's raining like a pig tomorrow,we're going to hold off and leave early Saturday morning, no sense in abusing our heaterless selves.

What's happening with the Saturday night pot luck? I can't load enough fish on my BBQr to fill folks up.

We're coming over tomorrow afternoon to Swantown Marina. If the weather's really bad, we're going to stay on the boat there for the night, walk into town for dinner and head to Jarrell's Cove on Saturday morning.
I'm not in charge of food, so I don't know what we're bringing, but we will bring ample food for the Saturday night potluck.

Lyle, Cherries, will there be cherries? Maybe we'll run into you at Swamptown
HellenO Larry? Lars? you folks still going? It would be kind of neat if while waiting for the weekly accident at Centrailia to clear up we all met up

TyBoo · Posted: Thu Mar 25, 2004 10:04 pm Post subject:

You all have a wonderful time. I'm working, elsewise I would be right there with you.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO FOR COFFEE??? arrrg....you folks will be missed......Catherlametstan is just around the corner though

Looking forward to meeting you all there. Be on the lookout for the boatless people dragging a dog and a cooler behind them. Sounds like you all are pretty picky about your beer. We are homebrewers but unfortunately don't have a batch ready now. Oh well - next time. I hope we will be able to stay for the potluck, it sounds like fun.

Scott and Laurie

I've got a huge pot of Eleanor's** World Famous Navy Bean Soup simmering away right now, it will be PRIME on Saturday night! Right out of the campfire scene in Blazing Saddles!! I am pretty sure there will be lots of other good eats, but anywho, we gots soup!

** Eleanor is Patty's mom, who taught us to make this wonderful soup...

Pat Anderson · Posted: Thu Mar 25, 2004 11:51 pm Post subject:

Bring a tent and sleeping bags! Or do like Roger and Lisbeth and find a local motel...but however you do it, be SURE you are there for the Saturday night potluck!

And yes, we ARE pretty picky about the beer! Wink

Hi there! Our original plan was to leave for Gerbil Cove Friday morning. The thought of 4 ft. seas and 25 mph winds doesn't get me to excited though. My wife (Helen) isn't the boating enthusiast that I am and she has never spent the night on a boat before. Sooooo.... I'm kinda picky about the conditions that I choose for her first night on the water. I want her to enjoy herself so that she'll want to go again. Anyhow, Friday is looking out of the question right now. I'll see how the weather is looking then.... If no improvement is in sight, I might have to wimp out.
